Take Note | Glamour mag ft. Nails inc

Guess who's back? Back again?

Glamour mag's December issue, and it's full of fabulous freebies yet again. Like last year, there are 4 Nails inc, full sized nail polishes to pick from. Ofcourse I bought all 4 - each of the colours were so, tempting. & the shop was newly stocked, so I feel no guilt.Unless they have 5 options, the illustration of the 4 colours on the plastic packaging is for one, very misleading; there's no pearly pink, but a grey - beware it's a bit murky. The other 3 are similair depths, so make sure you have good light if/when you're picking your shade. I'm a red nails any day of the week girl. so these 2 reds options have my vote - one slightly deeper than your Hollywood classics, the other a rich burgundy, that can look black in certain lights - I can't pick one. They all apply richly as you would expect; each Nail swatch is by 2 layers, and only the grey could do with a third, though it's not essential. They feel smooth, and ever so glossy, even without a top coat - though that has left them vulnerable to slight chips of wear on my thumbs.

Despite that minor flaw, I cannot understand how they let them go for £2!? Saving a total of £9 per polish.. and Yes, I have watched the program that suggests discount stores, and magazine freebies, aren't made to the quality standard of those full price - but, I've tried these and LOVED them before, and they contine to eclispse the quality of their nail polish counterparts. &, if I ever was in the market for a highend nailpolish, Nails inc is where I would turn.
So why not take the current promotion as a 'why-ever not?'; I spotted plenty of Novembers issues still in the shops, so you've got bags of time to sort your winter naildrobe out. You also bag a 20% off voucher for H&M (valid 3rd Nov-5th Dec 2014), with each - The magazine itself is a bonus.
Speaking of which, anyone for a free glamour mag? I have 3 going spare. *free gift not included*
